I hope I’m wrong but I think the economy is going to get smashed. It’s already happening. People are being let go and laid off. They’re being told to file right away for unemployment. The government is getting ready to spend $1 trillion to try to keep the economy from completely collapsing. Many businesses will fail in the coming weeks. Others will declare bankruptcy. And on top of all of that, who’s going to bail out a bankrupt government that keeps handing out money? I am not a doomsday guy! I’m an optimist! I’m hopeful. I believe we can create the circumstances we want. But I also think it is wise to be aware of the Realities that we are facing! So I want to raise a loving, warning voice to all of you. Stop acting like you’re on vacation! Go back to work. Hustle. Innovate. Get busy and stir up some results. Too many good people are sitting around waiting to see what happens. They’re drifting. They’re coasting. You cannot afford to do that. Your family and your community need you to show up. Even if you’re not going to be affected because you work in an essential industry, I believe you have an opportunity and a responsibility to level up so that you can help people who are going to need it!
Every crisis is an opportunity and this one is yours!We can see this as a problem or is a privilege.We can sit in our house is killing time, sedating ourselves with entertainment, or we can use this time to lift ourselves with knowledge and skill development. None of us can afford to waste this opportunity! Do not squander this chance to transform your life!

With so many misconceptions about what it means to be a man, and so many men living far below the standard, we all need to put forth the greatest effort to help boys and men be real men!
"At each moment in man's life, he is either a King or a slave. As he surrenders to a wrong appetite, to any human weakness; as he falls prostrate in hopeless subjection to any condition, to any environment, to any failure, he is a slave. As he day by day crushes out human weakness, masters opposing elements within him, and day by day re-creates a new self from the sin and folly of his past, - then he is a King. He is a King ruling with wisdom over himself. Alexander conquered the whole world except, Alexander. Emperor of the earth, he was the servile slave of his own passions." -William George Jordan (Self Control Its Kingship & Majesty)
“I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death.” Thomas Paine
“A gentleman differs from other men in that he retains his heart. A gentleman retains his heart by means of benevolence.” Mencius
"There is in certain men … a quality of resilience, a sturdy refusal to acknowledge defeat, which aids them as effectively in the affairs of the heart as in encounters of a sterner and more practical kind."
Books About Manliness
Most of us have aspects of our life that are frustrating or disappointing. Why is that? Why is it that that part of our life sucks? Honestly, because we suck at it! That’s actually really great news because once we realize that we lack skill set in that area, we can begin doing something right away to improve the skill. You have way more power than you think you do! The quality and outcome of every area of your life depends upon your skill set in that area.
If we don’t understand how the brain works, we don’t understand how life works. New brain scanning technology is revolutionizing what we know about human performance and how the brain is affecting our bodies and our lives.Brain scanning is the future! And I believe that at some point every one of us ought to have our brain scanned. The condition of your brain is literally determining the condition of your life. Your brain state and brain function are affecting your mindset, your emotions, your energy levels and your behaviors. When things are off in our lives and the lives of people we love perhaps the first place we should look is the brain.In this episode I share several things that have been revealed from the research that we can do to keep our brains healthy and even recover from damage or poor brain health.

Almost every single choice we make will lead to freedom or limit freedom.Each of us has the potential freedom to lead life on our own unique terms. But many of us make choices that drastically limit our freedoms.This is true in every aspect of life. From health and fitness to finances. From education to contribution. The danger is that many of us are making choices every day unconsciously. We are literally unaware of choices that we are making that are limiting our freedoms.This episode can be a wake up call for all of us to be more keenly aware of how our choices are leading to or limiting our freedom.
